The objective of this thread is to provide a quick visible place to get assistance with small Three Kingdoms objectives. For example, if you need assistance with the translation of a certain hanzi, post it here and perhaps someone will be able to assist you. If you are wondering what the tones of an officer’s name are, again, this is the place for it. Basically, anything that can be answered with one quick post.

If your question is controversial (even in the slightest), or if a particularly informative reply would be required (a paragraph of carefully researched information) create a new thread after searching for the information (sometimes it is already there). Basically, this is a home to the questions the moderators really don’t want to see in new topics.

And with that said, I will kick it off with some information me and Jonathan Wu need for Kongming’s Archives, and the upcoming officer name / hanzi table.

Is anyone able to provide the decimal values for the following names (xing, ming, and zi), or can anyone post the hanzi to this thread? I can get the information needed from either method. Thanks in advance to anyone who can assist me.

If I may be of assistance; I can help somewhat with Han-tse romanisation, be it into either Wade-Giles (preferred) or pinyin. I can also convert pinyin spellings to Wade-Giles and somewhat to Yale, although my understanding of the Yale romanisation isn't too good just yet.

In Xiahou Dun's SGZ biography, it is stated that "太祖自徐州还，惇从征吕布，为流矢所中，伤左目。" which means, when Cao Cao returned from Xu Zhou, Xiahou Dun was sent to attack Lu Bu, and he was shot by an arrow (during the battle), hurting his left eye. This event should happen in the year 194 A.D. if I'm not wrong.
